Phil's lessons helped me reach a new plateau in guitar playing. I don't have much natural ability and I started out with a lot of obnoxious screeching noises. He was patient with me, not making those cringy faces I've seen from others. He has taught me several rock songs that I can play well enough to recognize. Also, he is a good player and once I could play some good rhythm cords, he played along. So I learned about accompaniment and that was soooo much fun.

Thanks Thomas! I know you forgot to click on that 5th star but that's OK. They dont let you edit your review!!

I have had over a hundred lessons from Phil over the years. At my request he started teaching me basic blues rhythms. He knew all about them, even though his background is more Jazz influenced (He had his own Jazz band). Phil seemed to know which rhythms would be fun and easy at each level as I was advancing. He was always patient with me; I really sucked at each new thing for a while. He wouldn't even say a word about it (he knows I have ears). I'm so glad that I stuck with him. Now I can play about 50 rock songs and counting. Phil even learned some songs just so he could teach them to me. I recommend him highly

Phil asked me what I wanted to achieve with my new guitar learning experience. He listened and we set a plan. He makes us keep it fun. I feel comfortable setting my pace. His working knowledge of so many music genres has me excited about what I will be able to play soon!

Phil was an amazing guitar teacher. I worked with him for five years when I lived in the suburbs. He’s very personable and communicates effectively when teaching. Highly recommend!
